Question 320d vs 330d

Hello i have a 320d and have been thinking about getting a 330d and just want to know if someone has driven both to compare.
Mainly if the heavier engine makes the car handle noticable worse or if its worth the extra power and also wich of the m57 and n57 is more tuneable/reliable or if its just more worth it tuning the 320d to the same hp?
And im only interested in manual gearboxes if that makes a difference.

M57 is more reliable, i think its worth it, i had a 330d and i miss it, now i drive a 320d

Nope bought a 335d and took the engine out and put it in a e30 but its a big difference from a 320 to a 335 especially if its tuned can defenetly recomend if you dont mind the auto or if you are willing to manual swap it its really fun
